The school house in Hahn district of South Richland Township (Defiance County, Ohio) which was situated near the B&O Railroad tracks, was the target for a quartet of tramps who camped there. They broke a new lock in gaining admission to the building and also damaged the front door seriously in the attack. They had provisions with them and camped in the house during the night and apparently had a good time feasting and roasting their shins by the stove with the school's wood, and littering up the floor. They left the next morning at an early hour and were seen as they departed by neighboring residents, but were out of reach before the indignant populace organize and pursue them.
It will be well for them to dodge that section in their future travels.
